Panacur

Hi,

I am thinking about worming my four bunnies using panacur but three out of four of them can fidget a great deal so administering it will be difficult. I was wondering whether it would be possible to put the panacur on their pellets? If not what is the best approach to administer it.

Thanks
 
You might be lucky, i just get the panacur tube out and show my two it and they both go mad to get it. They really love it. I just put the syringe in their mouth and squirt it in, then they mob me for more!

But if not, then yes, it is fine to put on any food :) I sued to slit a mange tout or sugar snap pea and put it inside.

I have just wormed my two with Panacur. I would never be able to get the thing in their mouths so I squeeze the amount they need onto spring green leaf (or any other veg they will eat) and so they just eat it without realising its on there!
 
With our two we use two different methods:

Jimby will take it if we smoosch it inbetween two leaves (mint or basil)
Cookie will reluctantly take it if it is on a fenugreek crunchie.
